The 2024
PAVE Scholarship
Valerie Lange from the University of Washington was the recipient of the
2024 Bergmeyer Scholarship and Mentorship Experience. Applicants
were asked to re昀氀ect upon the con昀氀uence of future Store Design
thinking and an active focus on sustainability and submit a written
response to how they imagine stores of tomorrow will be di昀昀erent
from today. Students were also asked to provide a project portfolio
highlighting their retail, restaurant, or hospitality-related projects. The
quality and talent of the applications were impressive, with several
standout entries that demonstrated a variety of design skills and
knowledge.
Valerie’s submission was a fantastic exploration of architecturally
bold branded experiences that engage customers and inhabitants in
experience-rich multi-sensory environments.
Founded in 1992 as The Planning and Visual Education Partnership,
